Bio 12B is in customer preview for FEP and ADMET workloads. Pretraining corpus is the same; the specialised checkpoint adds an extra 8B tokens of curated biology data. 7nm ASAP7 PPA gap at iso-area is now 1.06× the commercial EDA baseline.
A fabless semiconductor customer running RTL → GDS through Aether as a secondary signoff path. The primary path remains commercial EDA; Aether is graduating into the primary slot one design family at a time.
Tool-policy DSL updated with a new biosecurity scope for handle controlled-pathogen lookup. Updates documented at /system-prompt.
